Picture Jaspers The term "Picture Jasper" encompasses a wide range of stones. Jasper in general is found all over the world, but Picture Jaspers are predominantly found in the United States, except for Royal Sahara, which, as the name suggests, comes from the Sahara Desert in Africa. Most Picture Jaspers in the U.S. are found in Oregon and Idaho. Oregon has produced some stunning Jaspers. While stones are often named for the person who discovered them, most Picture Jasper names indicate their location. Biggs Jasper is from Biggs, Oregon. Bruneau Jasper comes from Bruneau Canyon, Idaho. And so on. Each Jasper is distinctive and (for 03. the most part) easily identifiable, except for Biggs and Deschutes, which come from mines near each other, and look very similar to the 07. untrained eye. Some Picture Jaspers are a mixture of browns, while others such as Cripple Creek, Owyhee, Rocky Butte, Succor Creek and Wildhorse have areas of blue, which can be cut to show as sky above a landscape, and are the epitome of a “picture” stone. The American Picture Jaspers we’ll be looking at in this series are: Name Location Apache Mimbres Valley, New Mexico 08. Biggs Biggs Junction, Oregon Blue Mountain Malheur County, Oregon Bruneau Bruneau River Canyon, Idaho Cripple Creek Owyhee Mtns., Oregon Deschutes Biggs Canyon, Oregon 04.

Augie’s May 2020 Jasper Selections – Apache Jasper Apache Jasper (or Apache Rhyolite) also known as Mimbres Jasper. This attractive material comes from a small deposit in the Mimbres Valley, northeast of Deming, New Mexico.

As Emerald is the second most valuable gemstone, there is a good market for synthetic stones. “Synthetic” – a stone whose physical, chemical and optical properties are identical to its earth- mined equivalent, but which is created in a laboratory. “Simulant” – a stone which has a similar appearance to a natural stone and is used to “simulate” that stone. Commonly known as “fakes”. Jadeite has more simulants than any other gem material – over 20 different minerals are known to be passed off as Jadeite. 12. 16. *** Augie’s May 2020 Birthstone Selections 13. 02. 01.

The Egyptian mines were worked on an industrial scale by the Roman and Byzantine empires, and later by 04. Islamic conquerors. Today, the primary source of Emeralds is Colombia, with the 3 main areas being Muzo, Chivor and Coscuez. Colombia is unique in its production of rare “trapiche” emeralds (see article in Aug. 2019 Rockzette). Zambia is the world’s second largest producer. Synthetic Emeralds have been successfully produced since 1930, by both flux and 05. hydrothermal methods. Such names as Chatham, Gilson, Kyocera, Biron, Farben, Continued next page… 15.

By accentuating the economic aspect of the Byzantine image debates it illustrates how the concerns raised by those defending the holy images in the eighth and ninth centuries proved to be precisely the issues that would accompany the resurgence of Christian iconoclasm in the Protestant Reformation. What should be clearer from the standpoint of this study is that debates concerning the legitimacy of the production and veneration of holy images touch on the fundamental claims of the Christian faith as at the heart of the theological defense is the mystery of God-made-man and the implications of this mystery for how God continues to seek union through his own body, that is, in the sacrifice of the Eucharist and in the Church itself.
